Robert Olszewski has created a unique and different way to "turn-on/turn-off" the magic that is experienced in the lighting of his Gallery of Light pieces. He has placed an instrinic light switch that is found in the lower right hand corner of the frame that surrounds the box. There you will find a single push button on-off switch and by depressing a single leaf the lights will activate the lights.
The LED lights in the Olszewski Gallery of Light pieces are rated for 10,000 hours so they should not burn out unless the piece has been left on 24 hours a day, seven days a week for 3 and a half years. If you experience problems, it is more likely because the batteries need to be changed or are not inserted properly.
